Thank You Christophe, I'm glad You like my photos so much Beautiful collection of moose and reindeer and very beautiful group photos too, I love them Lineol moose is incredibly fantastic And how lovely small family of moose standing between the grey one and yellowish/beige one, are they Elastolin? Scott: the reindeer on far right is Nayab. And I think it is very nice one indeed, just added to my wish list :)

If Christophe was adding his two cents, then I'm adding my single wooden penny. Nothing here is new, but in the spirit of sharing, here is my very limited moose and reindeer collection.

The Moose (The Papo on the left, and the rest are Schleich)[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I can't help noting that the moose family is one of my very favorite from Schleich's Mom-Dad-Baby groups. I was thrilled when they released the Moose cow and calf.[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

The Reindeer (Safari, Schleich, and Bullyland)[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I obtained this wonderful Bullyland figure from Harriet in my first trade ever. I am so grateful to her for making the experience so amazingly friendly and pleasant, and of course for sending me such fantastic model.[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

And I have to throw in another picture of the Safari Reindeer because it is also quite wonderful (as others have already noted). (I like the Schleich okay, but there are so many other Reindeer I've seen on this thread that I like so much more -- the Nayab and Elastolin for example! Wow...)

The Lineol moose is very interesting and in a typical Lineol pose. Much more interesting than the modern toys standing with the head turning towards the camera! :) Also interesting that they, being an European brand, made what looks clearly an American moose. :)I think the European subspecies are more spectacular. Very delicate indeed, maybe too delicate for a moose, hind quarters are not powerful enough but a superb figure. What can we do to Lineol return to the market? Or a brand buy their licenses and remake them?

The only moose I have is this Swedish one:)However, he is not an ordinary moose:) Look at those little trolls on his back :) BTW, this sculpture reminds me of the characters from J.Martin's 'A song of Ice and Fire' (Bran and Reed children on the Cold Hands' Moose), though they were children, not trolls with tails:).[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Daria that is an adorable sculpture, even if they are trolls! It is made from wood?

No, polystone or sth like that.scot(t)To tell the truth it was my first thought as I saw this moose:)I do not remember exactly. I think no. Or maybe I was so impressed with Bloodraven that I paid no attention to the Cold Hands. I also considered him to be Ben Stark:)

OH, lovely and a big eyed kid! Congratulations, that is a Safari figure that had a discret role in Safari range, an almost unknown figure and already hard to find. He fits much better in size with the larger one but it is easy to see which is his father. I believe there's no cow but he is surely confortable under the large antlers of 2 fathers.
